I have 4 buttons on a page. Each
button opens a modal window and let’s the user input data in a form. When the user hits the save
button in the modal, a ListView appears on the page with the submitted data.
The
button the user clicked to open the modal window is set to visible=false, so it’s gone when the row is added to the ListView. Now there are 3 buttons and the same goes for those; when the user hits a
button, a modal appears, and when the modal form is submitted, the
button disappears and a row is added to the ListView.
In the ListView row, there is a delete
button. When this
button is clicked, the row is deleted and the
button that was initially clicked to add this row (and open the modal), SHOULD reappear, but it doesn’t. The row disappears, but I have to refresh the page before the
button comes back. There is a ScriptManager on the masterpage, so I guess this is an AJAX partial refresh issue. I tried adding different events, but I can’t find the one that fires at the
right time.
I use an ObjectDataSource to fill the ListView, and the data comes from a database, wrapped in a business object.
This code loads a business object in a List< and checks if the user inserted an item of a specific type. If he did, the
button he used to open the modal is hidden. This works fine (maybe not the most elegant)
_goals = GoalManager.GetGoalsByUser(UserID);
if (_goals != null)
{
foreach (Goal _goalinlist in _goals)
{
if (_goalinlist.GoalType == 1)
{
Button1.Visible = false;
goalid1 = true;
}
if (_goalinlist.GoalType == 2)
{
Button2.Visible = false;
goalid2 = true;
}
if (_goalinlist.GoalType == 3)
{
Button3.Visible = false;
goalid3 = true;
}
if (_goalinlist.GoalType == 4)
{
Button4.Visible = false;
goalid4 = true;
}
}
}
As you can see, I tried setting a boolean, and then check it when the page is re-loaded. But the problem (I guess) is that the whole page isn't refreshed when the delete
button is clicked in the ListView.
This is the delete
button in the ListView:
<asp:ImageButton ID="ImageButton2" runat="server" CommandName="Delete" CausesValidation="false"
ToolTip="Delete" CommandArgument='<%#Eval("GoalID")%>' ImageUrl="delete.gif"
OnClientClick="return confirm('Delete this post?');" CssClass="
button"/>
I guess the question is, how do I make the
button re-appear
right after the ListView
button is clicked?
